Riyadh Realities

After last night's opening instalment of House of Saud: A Family at War, consider why we are expected to support any and everyone who might take to the streets in Iran.

Consider why we sell arms at all when we never know where they might end up and be turned on us, never mind why we sell them to Saudi Arabia, which we know is going to supply them to al-Qaeda and IS. Consider how much goes back to the side that the present War Party supported in Bosnia.

And consider that Israel is known to be bombing the enemies of al-Qaeda and IS in Syria, while Priti Patel tried to divert British aid money to an IS field hospital in the Golan Heights.
